Master Thesis - Transport Processes in Corynebacterium Glutamicum

As a leading research institution for microbial biotechnology, the Institute of Bio- and Geosciences – Biotechnology (IBG-1) focuses on molecular and applied microbiology. Interdisciplinary teams are developing biotechnological processes for tomorrow’s industry, with a focus on increasingly automated and miniaturised experiments.

The goal of our work is to use microorganisms for the biotechnological production of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and proteins from renewable raw materials. This approach is crucial for establishing a circular economy and reducing our dependence on fossil resources. Our research focuses on selected microbial cell factories, whose metabolism and regulatory networks we characterize in detail as a prerequisite for the development of highly efficient production strains. For our work, we employ state-of-the-art methods, such as next-generation sequencing, RNA-Seq, proteom...
